So with DeCamp no longer running commuter lines (which is really sad), what's the latest with the MCI cruisers that NJT gave them?

I'm told they're in a lot not far from Meadowlands Garage. I assume that NJT is going to be getting them back on the road in NJT paint. Maybe they can retire the last of the 40-foot cruisers, maybe they'll go South and relieve some of the mileage crunch down there.

Can confirm seeing the former DeCamp cruisers parked next to Meadowlands, along with more retired ones

19138 and 19140 transferred to EHT.

18068, 18085 to Newton Av

I noticed that the transferring has either slowed or stopped.  For instance EHT has 19131-19135,19138 19140 &19141 but Camden still has 19126-19130, 19139, 19142, 19144-19151.  There's a gap now with the 18000s too, I noticed 18064-18072 and 18075 are in Camden and 18073 and 74 are still at the Shore but Camden also has 18085.  The buses in between are also still at the Shore.   I noticed 19136 and 19143 are at Turnersville and they are borrowing buses from Camden it seems like everyday now.  19129 is doing the 551 now and former EHT 18070 is on the 406 today.   I hope some of these former DeCamp buses end up in Turnersville or EHT.  These are badly needed especially before the summer schedule kicks in.

We are supposed to get all of the 19000s from camden. Twp does not want to give up those 2 that they have but have no choice. 

19129 is a breakdown and 18070 is a breakdown. 
 

The process is slow right now. A lot of mechanics are calling out, especially the A Rate guys who do major work and newton wants all major brake work done before they take on the rest of the 18000s.
